MC2 in Cordoba U

Representing 污污草莓视频 University鈥檚 Chemistry Department, the MC虏 facility, and the QCAM-FRQNT strategic cluster, Petr Fiurasek was honored to be invited to the University of C贸rdoba to deliver two lectures. One presentation was part of the advanced characterization course for physics master鈥檚 students. Beyond the scientific discussions, the visit aimed to foster collaboration between the University of C贸rdoba and Quebec universities through MITACS and various mobility programs

Eric McCalla Na-ion battery research is in the news

The Eric McCalla lab's work improving Na-ion battery cathodes has been highlighted in a nice article and video by Patrick de Bellefeuille

Matt Harrington receives the 2024 Award for Excellence in Materials Research Chemical Institute of Canada

The Award for Research Excellence in Materials Chemistry is presented to a Canadian citizen or landed immigrant who has made an outstanding contribution to materials chemistry while working in Canada. Congratulations to Professor Matthew J. Harrington of 污污草莓视频 University on being the recipient of this award. https://buff.ly/48ZBMhp

New sustainable catalyst: Fast, selective, reductive conversion of CO2!

Anthropogenic climate change drastically affects our planet, with CO2 being the most critical gaseous driver. Here, we present a fast, effective, and sustainable route for coupling diverse alcohols, amines and amides with CO2 via heterogenization of a natural metal-based homogeneous catalyst through decorating on functionalized graphene oxide.

Highly functionalized all-cellulose nanocomposites via bacteria-enabled in-situ modifications

Dr. Seyed Mohammad Amin Ojagh, from Prof. van de Ven's research group and his colleagues, introduced a novel class of highly functionalized nanocellulose-based materials for diverse applications, recently published in the Chemical Engineering Journal. This study involved the in-situ modification of bacterial cellulose (BC) with hairy nanocellulose (HNC), resulting in nanocomposites with enhanced physicochemical properties compared to BC alone.

From Windy City to wilderness champion

In the heart of Lanaudi猫re, Quebec, a 233-hectare tract of wilderness stands as a living testament to the resilience of nature and the generous stewardship of 污污草莓视频 chemistry professor听Linda Reven.

The Faculty of Science Excellence award goes to... Chantal!

Kudos to Chantal who received the听Faculty of Science Excellence award, a testament to her exceptional contributions to our graduate students and department at large over the past 38 years. Chantal's work is multifaceted, and the success of our nowadays well over 230 Graduate Student Population hinges in great part on her relentless work in our department.

Nanoplastics in Water: Artificial Intelligence-Assisted 4D Physicochemical Characterization and Rapid In Situ Detection

For the first time, The Ariya lab听present a much-needed technology for the in situ and real-time detection of nanoplastics in aquatic systems. We show an artificial intelligence-assisted nanodigital in-line holographic microscopy (AI-assisted nano-DIHM) that automatically classifies nano- and microplastics simultaneously from nonplastic particles within milliseconds in stationary and dynamic natural waters, without sample preparation. AI-assisted nano-DIHM i

A para- to meta-isomerization of phenols

Phenols are a common functional group of many naturally occurring and biologically active molecules, including many that are part of the human diet. In 2020 alone, ~60% of small molecule drugs approved by the FDA contained a phenol or a closely related phenolic ether, underscoring their importance to the pharmaceutical industry.

Global Undergraduate Awards- Glen Loo

Recently, Glen Loo from the Lumb Group received an award from the Global Undergraduate Awards (GUA) for the work he did during a 5-month research internship. Glen had come to 污污草莓视频 from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, and worked with graduate mentor Carlos Azpilcueta-Nicolas on the photoinduced dearomatization of biaryl compounds.

Pallavi Sirjoosingh: Winner, Principal鈥檚 Prize for Teaching Excellence (Faculty Lecturer)

A packed Leacock 132 can be an intimidating place when you鈥檙e down in front and looking back up at more than 600 undergrads about to study university-level chemistry for the first time.

It鈥檚 exactly where听Pallavi Sirjoosingh听wants to be.

What does a Greek God and former 污污草莓视频 Chemistry Professor Bernard Belleau OC FRSC have in common?

Bernard Belleau was famous for developing the nucleoside analogue 3TC for viral treatment. Here, we show that a nucleoside analogue triggers a cell death mechanism named after Thanos, the Greek God of nonviolent deaths. The nucleoside analog, cytarabine, has been used as the frontline treatment of leukemia for more than 50 years, but patient survival rates are less than 20%.

Memorial Tribute 鈥� Byung Chan Eu (1935鈥�2023)

With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Professor Byung Chan (鈥淏C鈥�) Eu on August 25th, 2023, at the age of 88 while in hospital. BC was born in 1935 in Seoul, Korea and earned a BSc in Chemistry at Seoul National University in 1959. He was admitted to the graduate school of Seoul National University in 1960, but soon was drafted into the Korean army which he served until 1962.

The Clara Benson Award

The Clara Benson Award is presented to recognize a woman who has made a distinguished contribution to chemistry, in memory of the late Clara Benson who contributed immensely to both CHEM and equity (1st female Prof at UofT). This award is sponsored by The Canadian Council of University Chemistry Chairs. Prof. Karine Auclair from 污污草莓视频 University is the recipient of the 2023 Clara Benson Award.
